Broken Camera/New Apartment

I've had an unfortunate thing happen to me this past week. My camera broke! Oddly enough I haven't even looked into getting it fixed. It seems like a useless venture for me when a new camera was the plan in a month anyway. Since my job requires me to have a camera I have been using the work one in the mean-time, mine works here-and-there it's just not reliable. With that being said, I will not be posting any new work or adventures for a bit and if I do they will most likely be instagram shots or plain iphone pics.

In other news, I am moving out on my own! Tomorrow is when I go pick up my keys and start cleaning and preparing the place for the furniture (which comes on the 8th). According to my scheduled time-frame I will be completely moved in and living there on the 13th of August. It is exciting for me since I have never been on my own. I am 24 years old and finally getting my dose of full independence. My sister is coming along tomorrow to help document the day :) I will try and get a post up by the end of this week.

Since this whole Chick-fil-a up roaring I have become more aware of how I feel towards what is going on out in the world. I tend to stay out of things and let them be. I don't judge anyone nor do I hate anyone. I was raised United Pentecostal and brought up with the Bible. I won't claim to be knowledgeable about everything but the basics I was raised with have made me who I am today. I won't sit by while others try to dictate what can and cannot be said and what we should believe in. Because one person has a different opinion from you does not mean they hate you or feel you shouldn't be treated equally. I don't think I can sit back while everyone else is vocal and taking away my freedom to have an opinion. What ever happened to freedom of speech? Freedom of religion? I have many friends that don't share the same views as I do and I can get through life just fine with them. Their lifestyles don't effect me as a person and I could care less what they decided to do with their lives or who they want to love. With that being said (and I won't go into it any further) I will be eating at Chick-fil-a tomorrow, August 1st, 2012, for appreciation day. :) 

A few shoots I will share in the next month.

Kristin + Joel | Wedding
Native Evolution | Fashion shoot (Photography Final)

Have a great rest of the week!

Lindy + Paul |Wedding

I met Lindy through Facebook last year when she wrote me after seeing some photos I did of a friend Amber. We met and hit it off. She is such a wonderfully sweet person to talk to. I did her and Paul's engagement session as well (will possible share at a later day as well). Then the wedding was set for May this year. I had a blast following her around for the day and capturing the beautiful moments. Here's the eventful day, notice the amount of dancing photos! I rarely get to do dancing photos, but they are my favorite! Enjoy
